I've seen countless highlight reels of this kid and he literally looks like a man amongst infants. Size, agility, can shoot the 3. He looks to be unstoppable. Can't wait to see this guy in the PMAC.

Best HS player since Lebron. There hasn't been a guy his size that can handle the ball, pass, and shoot like that. He doesn't shoot a lot now because he doesn't have to but just wait until next year

Next Lebron-esque talent. Future NBA #1 draft pick. Future NBA MVP

I hope he stays more than one season, but that's highly doubtful.

Ben is better then Wiggins. Minimal difference in athleticism and explosion but Ben is soooo much more refined. He really is a PG in a 6'10 body. Unreal court vision. He's like what would've happened if T-Mac ever really gave a shite about basketball. Just insane all around domination.

I still disagree with the Cavs trading Wiggins, was against it all along. I would've taken a chance on getting Love in FA this next offseason. Even with LJ and future hardware, and/or resigning Love longterm, they may live to regret trading AW?

Knew the Cavs wouldn't be better than Chi in the East in 2015.now appears Hawks and Wash too. Moved AW prematurely imho..would've waited to see what FAs wanted to play with the King over the next year.

Thing that impresses me the most about him is his basketball IQ. He knows how to play without the ball. Every game I've seen him play in he gets a handful of baskets just by knowing when to cut to the basket or getting to a certain spot in the zone. He's already the complete package at such an early stage in his career.

Thon Maker wasn't even ranked in the top 3 in the class of 2016 according to 247 and ESPN.
